The Dome Edinburgh Reviews
Very poor
I visited the Dome for lunch with a friend. We had fish & chips which was not nice at all, very dry, it was obviously frozen. Can’t believe that a place like the Dome will have frozen food. The Waitress was very sullen and the service was ter

What a delightful, classy, and colorful dining venue this place is! We took an Uber ride to come here just for afternoon high tea (32 GBP pp) and it was about 1:45pm on a Saturday. Our tour guide recommended this place to us as Edinburgh's bes
Domething Special
We stopped for drinks only. Romantic Atmosphere Amazing Service. Beautiful Decor. My partner said it was the best Bloody Mary she had ever had.
Excellent Food & Ambience
First visit to The Dome and it won't be the last. Beautiful setting and ambience throughout. Highly impressed with a designated Gluten Free Menu with a large selection for each course, which I don't get very often. George was brilliant with
Excellent
'Your Waiter Jack was all that you would require of a waiter, pleasant, polite, efficient and easy to talk to..
Lovely fourth visit. So decadent; so lovely
Stopped into The Dome for a late afternoon bite and it did not disappoint. We shared a gorgeous charcuterie board – beautifully presented, packed with flavour and the perfect size to enjoy with a glass (or two!) of wine while people-watching in tho
Stellar wedding anniversary celebration
we could not have been more impressed with our experience at The Dome! The service was exceptional, the food exquisite and the ambiance top notch.
Pricey, average, not very helpful.
Everything is disappointingly average except the price. We went on a Saturday night having booked well in advance we were seated up a rather cramped corner. The menu is really rather limited a choice of five mains I opted for the chicken which althou
Grill Room, the dome, edinburgh
Went for lunch with one of my friends in the Grill Room. Absolutely lovely food. We had a lovely waiter called George who was very helpful and chatty. A real credit to the staff. Thank you again
Edinburgh
Discovered this gem on a short break, wonderful setting and decor, great service and excellent food, very reasonable prices considering all the above attributes, we had a lovely dinner and so booked brunch and that too was excellent, definitely visit
The Dome
This place is a must see while in Edinburgh. The food and staff were outstanding. The Sunday dinner special was our choice and loved it.
Completely worth the hype! Sure, it's fairly expensive but
Completely worth the hype! Sure, it's fairly expensive but you pay for the gorgeous building and ambiance, as well as the fine service. We came for lunch and had the best time. We both enjoyed steak pies that melted in your mouth. They have a wi

Came here recently with my husband for drinks and had a wonderful experience! The service was delightful from start to finish with the waiting staff kind and attentive and the drinks were amazing! Definitely recommend when visiting Edinburgh as the s
Great location
Positioned on George Street in the heart of Scotland's capital city the Dome is absolutely stunning inside and a perfect spot for pre dinner drinks and/or dinner there. Great cocktail menu and they are well made but beware the city centre prices
Nice place for a special occasion
The Dome has a nice interior and the service is good. The food is well presented The staff when not busy did not portray the ambience as you would expect Overall a good place to fine for a special occasion
BEAUTIFUL SURROUNDINGS WHILE EATING A DELICIOUS MEAL
This restaurant is fabulous. It is worth going just to see the building both inside and out - jaw dropping beautiful architecture. It is easy to find in George St, just behind Princes Street. The staff were very efficient and cheerful. Our dinner
Very nice experience
It was our first time at the Dome. We celebrated a birthday with a Sunday roast and champagne. Both were really nice and service was good. We also stayed for some drinks afterwards. The atmosphere was nice - fancy but still relaxing, good value. When
Incredible!!!
Went here for my Husbands birthday and we were both very impressed. The decor, food and service were all impeccable, along with our incredible waiter George. We will definitely be back next time we’re in the city.
Disappointing - avoid
Tasteless food, horrible ambience (so loud it’s like a canteen), staff clueless about food, despite knowing it was a special birthday daughter not even wished a greeting. Dreadful experience and definitely won’t return.
A taste of luxury!
Eating in very relaxed pleasant atmosphere. Friendly staff, good service, lovely food. Beautiful entrance hall, outstanding decor.
Excellent food, service and ambiance
Must have the sticky toffee pudding!! This was our favorite restaurant we went to on our week-long trip. Highly recommend.
Excellent food and great value in a beautiful setting.
Fantastic lunch in a beautiful setting. We opted for the Table D’hote menu, 3 courses for £31. The food was outstanding and the portions were very generous.
Wonderful atmosphere but let down by slow service and disappointing food quality.
Went with family for my mums 60th birthday. Beautiful venue but the service was slow. Parts of the meal were forgotten about like sauces and sides. Some of our party ordered the Sunday roast but the beef was tough and the lamb was dry.
Festive Set Menu
Hello, we love The Dome and trry to visit everytime we are in Edinburgh. This will be our first Christmas and were wondering if you are able to order the Sunday roast during your Festive set menu?
Afternoon Tea
Fabulous afternoon tea served by Paul, who was very welcoming, provided great service, nothing was too much trouble, kept us topped up with tea. Would highly recommend a visit.

I had such a great experience at this brunch spot! The service was excellent—friendly, attentive, and welcoming from start to finish. The food was absolutely lovely, full of flavor and really well presented. On top of that, the place itself was jus

Afternoon Tea
As visitors to your wonderful country, we were not really sure what to expect when we visited the Dome. Our server treated us very well, and the food was delicious! The interior of the building was just stunning!
Day out at the dome
Good all round service has all ways 110% every time we visit 4th time now we have been and we will be seeing you next year 😀
Beautiful restaurant!
This is probably the most beautiful restaurant I have ever been in. The food was excellent and we had a really nice wait staff member.
Beautiful experience
We had a wonderful lunch served by excellent staff in the most beautiful surroundings, We always take friends visiting from Cruise ships here, they absolutely love it.
Incredible venue.
Nice menu fairly priced. Building itself is worth the visit. Bar manager did a very fun and informative scotch tasting. Definitely worth a visit
Beautiful building with lovely architecture.
First, it was loud and very crowded. Not a relaxing dining atmosphere. More of a place for drinking. That being said you get a table, if you can, and get your own drinks. The cocktails were creative and delicious. We asked for a quiet table in the ba

Great ambiance, service and food! The main room has a huge bar in the middle and the ceiling is beautiful. Our server was very friendly and pleasant! Food and drinks were great. Highly recommended for a date night
My review is for Afternoon Tea for a party of 5.
The service was excellent, but the sandwiches were nothing special. Desserts were OK Nothing special for 72 per person.
Absolutely beautiful location! The atmosphere and setting
Absolutely beautiful location! The atmosphere and setting were definitely a highlight. However, we did experience a long wait to be seated despite having a reservation, which was a bit frustrating. The food was okay..the bread we ordered was disappoi
Delicious food and drinks! Beautiful atmosphere
Delicious food and drinks! Beautiful atmosphere (chandeliers, dim lights, fresh flow that fill the entire hall, bar & restaurant with a breath taking smell). Great service.
We came in for drinks and a light snack at the dome.
We were lucky to be seated inside the beautiful main seating area. The ambiance truly is breathtaking. They have a large selection of liquor and drinks at their bar. The staff is professional and attentive. The drinks were delicious. I wish I could h
Stopped for a whiskey while walking around Edinburgh.
I can see that this is listed as a champagne bar, but it looked like they had pretty tasty food. There was a vibrant scene of activity, with customers coming and going. Couples. Singles. Luxe and not so luxe. Sat at the bar and had a double scotch
This was a lovely spot for tea.
Unfortunately, despite making a reservation, we were seated upstairs and not in the main room that was decorated for the holidays. That was really disappointing.
Service wasn't the best, but it's an amazing location and
Service wasn't the best, but it's an amazing location and the food was pretty good. Our table was tucked behind a wall almost which I think took from the experience. Definitely try to get a table in the center or at the bar.

AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with The Dome Edinburgh. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to The Dome Edinburgh at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the The Dome Edinburgh page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* EternalAnt36, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* EternalAnt36 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to EternalAnt36 for any questions Peter may have as EternalAnt36 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* EternalAnt36 now uses their connections at The Dome Edinburgh to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If EternalAnt36 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, EternalAnt36 receives the $200 reward which is credited to EternalAnt36's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at The Dome Edinburgh!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
